Chapter 39 Self-mastery
The fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the Lantern Festival, the time of noon, and the ancestral hall of the Yu family.

Today is the day when the Yu family worships their ancestors. At the end of the afternoon, all the nine branches of the Yu family's direct lineage and the seventeen branches of the outer lineage gathered here to worship the ancestors together.

Mother Yu got up early in the morning, washed and dressed the children, dressed them neatly, each of them had new clothes, and then took them and Father Yu's tablet together to head to the Yu family's mansion in Linhai City.

The Yu family's mansion occupies nine streets in Linhai City, and they all live together. The buildings are neatly arranged. The Yu Mansion, where the long house lives, is located in the very center. It covers an area of ​​more than ten acres and is guarded by a solid outer wall. It is simply a small city. , can be regarded as a city within a city. This is the characteristic of the big Tang family, and everyone in Linhai City is like this.In such a crisis, it can provide refuge for the collateral disciples of the family. It is said that there is a secret escape underground that leads directly to the outside of the city.

Yu Tianming came out to meet them and took them to the clan ancestral hall. Although it was Si time and the sacrifice had not yet begun, the clan ancestral hall was not open to everyone. As women, his mother and younger sister stayed outside, and only Yu Cheng took Yu Zegong into the ancestral hall.

Yu Tianming's attitude was neither enthusiastic nor indifferent. Under his guidance, Yu Zecheng put his father's tablet in the group of spiritual tablets enshrined in Yu's family. People were enshrined here, and they all died in battle for the benefit of the Yu family.

After placing the spirit card, it was re-registered in the clan book, and the elders of the clan were responsible for it. Turned to the page of the head room, and re-wrote the father's name on it.

Yu Tiangao, born in the year of Jiazi, is intelligent, and served in the year of Ding Chen when Chen Guotian was in trouble.

Just a few words, it is my father's life, and the four words of being smart were added by my mother after paying 400 taels of silver.Yu Zecheng didn't know what to say when he saw this, he felt an indescribable feeling.

Under Yu Tiangao, the names of the eldest son Yu Zecheng and the second son Yu Zegong were added. As for the handwriting behind the names, they will not be added until they die.Father's return to the ancestral tree is considered to have fulfilled his father's last wish.

Even if the matter is over after recording the genealogy, Yu Zecost wanted to leave. Who knew that Yu Tianming said:
"Father asked me to take you there, Zecheng, Zegong, you haven't seen Grandpa yet, right?"

After speaking, he took Yu Zecheng and Yu Zegong to the outer hall of the ancestral hall. There were already countless disciples of the Yu family waiting here. Cheng's grandfather, Yu Dejun.

Yu Dejun is the current member of the Yu family. In fact, Yu Zecheng has seen him several times in other places, but there are countless children around him, and Yu Zecheng, the grandson, will be seen there.You must know that Yu Dejun has three wives, ten concubines, a total of 21 sons, and hundreds of grandchildren. Where will he know Yu Zecheng, an unfilial descendant.

Entering the side hall, according to the rules, brothers Yu Zecheng and Yu Zegong knelt down to salute, and Yu Zecheng thought to himself:

"Anyway, you are my grandfather. I have worshiped you three times, and I have nothing to do with you ever since."

Yu Dejun said:
"Are the children from the Seventeenth family here? Grandpa has never seen you before. It was Grandpa's negligence. This is a gift for you to meet."

After finishing talking, one person gave a golden mouse, which is worth two or two.Yu Zecheng casually threw his golden mouse to his younger brother, then took out the jade pendant, and said:

"Grandpa, it's the first time we meet, and my grandson also prepared a gift for you, please accept it."

After speaking, they handed it over. When everyone saw this crystal clear jade pendant, they immediately knew that it was expensive, and their eyes on Yu Zecheng changed.Yu Dejun took the jade pendant and said in surprise:

"Intermediate spirit stone?"

Then he said:
"Zecheng, come with me, I have something to tell you."

After speaking, Yu Dejun walked into the ancestral hall, and Yu Zecheng followed behind him. The two came to the ancestral hall. This is a forbidden area, and there is no one around. Yu Dejun said:
"I know you are dissatisfied with me, and I don't care about your feelings. Your father abandoned the marriage I chose for him for the sake of so-called love. Useless waste, and made our Yu family's plan to unite with the Li family fail, so I Get kicked out."

As soon as he said this, Yu Zecheng immediately became angry and replied:
"Yes, Grandpa, you are the head of the Yu family. No one is a waste in your eyes. Now you have great power, and your wife is a virtuous and filial son. In fact, they all hope that you will go away on a crane as soon as possible. When you kick your legs that day, they will be afraid. There are not many who really shed tears.

Although my father is a waste in your eyes, he is a real man and a real father. Although we are not rich, we are very happy. I am very grateful to you. Fortunately, you expelled my father from this family, otherwise I would I don't even know what I look like, looking at those cousins, it's really pitiful. "

Yu Dejun smiled and said:

"The teeth are sharp and the mouth is sharp. It's a pity that you can't wait for the day when I kick my legs. I have reached the peak level of the innate realm, and I can live for hundreds of years. You are only at the intermediate level of the Qi-entraining realm, and the pseudo-spiritual roots of the five elements have entered the fetal breath." I think life is enough, so I can't say which one of us will die first."

As soon as he said this, Yu Zecheng was stunned. It turned out that Yu Dejun was also a cultivator of immortality. Yu Dejun continued:
"I asked you brothers to return to the genealogy. The purpose is not for your brothers, but for your descendants. It can't be said that the descendants will have spiritual roots, so that we can continue the current status of our Yu family.

Our Yu family can have this day because of how many ancestors sacrificed their lives and blood. I could have continued to practice within the mountain gate, and maybe I have succeeded in building a foundation now.But for the sake of the Yu family, I abandoned Xianlu and returned to the Yu family to marry a large number of wives and have children like a breeding pig. You kid is the offspring I created. Without me, there would be you.

Without my care, do you think that at a young age you could work in the Black Tiger Hall as someone else's book boy, and that the master of law Zhu Li would accept you as an apprentice?So train you?Without my protection, do you think your mother can raise you safely without anyone peeping at your mother's beauty?Without my cover-up, do you think that if you killed the adulterers of the Chen family, no one will retaliate, and everything will be safe?

In fact, your father is my favorite child. He is very similar to me. I named him Tiangao, because I wanted Tiangao to let the birds fly, and I planned to let him inherit our Yu family's business in the future.

He didn't live up to my expectations, but he abandoned the family business and the temptation to become the head of the family for a woman.In a sense, he is free to fly, not bound by the family, but I can only stick to this place, so I expelled him from the family, which is actually a kind of happiness for him, but it is a pity that this child is lucky Too shallow, died in Chen Guo. "

Speaking of Yu Dejun's unspoken sadness, Yu Zecheng suddenly had an understanding of the old man and felt the care and love for him from the old man.It turned out that Master Zhu Li devoted himself to teaching me because of my grandfather. It turned out that my grandfather had been secretly protecting my family so that I could grow up.

But he didn't seem to know about killing Li Daguan himself and blaming others, so how did he know about killing adulterers by himself?I understand, he must have followed that fairy before he found himself.

But no matter what, there is such a relative who secretly protects and loves himself, which is still touching.Yu Zecheng stood up and knelt down, bowed sincerely, and said:

"Thank you, Grandpa, for caring for us all these years and accepting my respect."

Then he bowed again and said:

"I prayed for my father, he has always remembered you."

Standing up after worshiping, Yu Dejun also nodded as an answer, and he said:
"It's a pity that Tiangao, he also has spiritual roots, but he just didn't want to cultivate immortality, he just didn't listen to my words, and finally died in a foreign land, my son.

Zecheng, at the time of the Qingming Festival next year, the Sixth Cultivation Cultivation Ceremony of the Xiling Alliance in Gunzhou will hold a disciple recruitment ceremony. Our Yu family belongs to the outer sect of the Shuiyun Sect, and we have a quota for disciples. I plan to give it to you so that you can participate The recruitment meeting of the disciples of the six factions joined the sect of cultivating immortals. "

Yu Zecheng asked hesitantly:

"The six schools of cultivating immortals in Xiling, Gunzhou? What are these?"

Yu Dejun replied:

"The six sects of cultivating immortals in Xiling include Shuiyun Sect, Jinyan Sect, Yuanzhu Sect, Yunxiu Sect, Ganmo Lingzunjiao, and Ziyu Sect. Once entered the ranking of [-] sects.

The alliance of six factions controls the western part of Dagon Prefecture. It was initially formed at Xiling Peak in the Qilian Mountains, so it is called the Xiling Alliance.Our country of Tang, the country of Mu, the country of Chi, the distant Jiang country, and the country of Jun are all the territory of the Shuiyun sect. It is a branch of Shuiyunzong.Now you know the power of Shuiyunzong, right? "

Yu Zecheng was dumbfounded for a long time when he heard this, and Yu Dejun continued:

"Every five years, the West Ridge Alliance will hold an Immortal Ascension Conference to assign the talented seed disciples found by the six sects. At the same time, they will also recruit casual cultivators and children from major cultivating families for testing. The lucky ones will be accepted by the six sects. Choose as an inner sect disciple and practice in the six sects. Ordinary disciples will practice in the outer sect of the six sects. The outer sect of our Shuiyun sect is the Chishui gate. You and Bai Hexi are good friends, and you will definitely get his care when you get there .

Your spiritual root is the spiritual root of the five elements, and the possibility of building a foundation is extremely slim. When you cultivate to the middle level of the realm of fetal breath, you can return to the Yu family. I will give you the position of the head of the family, so that you can enjoy the wealth and honor of your life.

Tomorrow you will resign your job at the Black Tiger Hall, and I will send you to work as a book boy with Mrs. Zhiyun in Xiaohan Mountain. Although you will be a little angry, Mrs. Zhiyun is the concubine of the head of the Yunxiu sect, so you can get involved with it , I will help you talk in the future, if you are wronged, just suffer a little bit, manly man, bear with it and let it go.

Whose girl do you arrange to be your wife?It is possible that Shi Tianfei of the Shi family will take over as the head of the family, so let him be the girl, so as to build a good relationship with the Shi family.The seventh child of the Chen family has the opportunity to be the head of Tang Kingdom. He only has one daughter. Although he is 20 years older than you, he can also consider it.A woman, that's all.

When you come back tomorrow, I will teach you etiquette and family rules first, and then learn..."

Yu Dejun began to calculate, he made all the arrangements for Yu Zecheng's future, but this arrangement completely ignored Yu Zecheng's wishes, Yu Zecheng was just a puppet to him, everything was decided by him.Yu Zecheng suddenly understood his father's choice.

Yu Zecheng suddenly said loudly:
"Grandpa, thank you for your kindness, but I don't want this quota, and I won't take the position of Patriarch of the Yu family. I will cultivate myself, and I don't need to participate in any Ascension Conference."

Yu Dejun stopped imagining and said:
"Self-cultivation? Hahaha, then you are a loose cultivator, poor grandson, you don't know Lingshi, you don't know what it is for, give it to me as a jade pendant, what else are you practicing.

Look at the protective jade talisman on your chest, it's a pity that this half of the spirit stone, the engraved magic circle is extremely rough, the spirit stone has been ruined for nothing, it's like buying a box to return a pearl, it can only play one tenth of its effect, it's really violent Ruin Tianzhen.

As long as you join the six major factions, you can learn..."

Yu Zecheng interrupted him and said:

"Grandpa, what you need is just an obedient puppet, not me, a living person. I am free and will not enter a cage. I am at your mercy. I live very well without you. Now that I have you, I will live well." Better yet, my fate is in my own hands."

Yu Dejun was speechless for a long time before he said:

"Your father seems to have said this back then. Am I wrong again? Like a father, like a son. Well, I won't force you, remember that your body contains the blood of our Yu family. The door is always open to you."
